The Hanna Instruments Marine Checker Handheld Colorimeters produce accurate digital readouts for your aquarium's alkalinity, calcium, nitrite & phosphorus.
Proper alkalinity is vital for coral calcification & skeletal formation; prevents pH swings, coral bleaching, & tissue loss; and improves equipment performance.
